Well, good points, but I must stand on my original judgement. With the internet so widely used, nobody in their right mind would try to jam you for a few more bucks. It is just too easy to go on to the next guy. The car business is not what it once was.
The only time I refrain from mentioning my Porsche is when I feel it would make the other person feel bad.
Which brings up a good point. Having a nice car makes you no better than the next guy. But the best way to alleviate any misunderstanding(at least if you drive a 20 year old 911) is to mention that it actually cost less than the Hondas everyone seems to be driving these days.
